In this brief conversational video, speakers A and B compare workbooks and guides, highlighting that workbooks are interactive, fill‑in‑the‑blank style resources, while guides are primarily instructional, often presented as full‑color PDFs. They note that both formats can be created on virtually any topic, especially those derived from a prior list of challenges. The core advice is that whichever format you choose, it must address a specific problem for your community of followers, ensuring the product delivers clear value.

Workbooks and guides are really similar. There's some nuance here in that a workbook most certainly is intended to be interactive, kind of some fill in the blanks, whereas a guide might be purely instructional, right? Full color PDF versions of workbooks or guides come in many shapes and sizes, and you can create a workbook or guide for just about anything. Think back to the massive list of ideas we shared earlier in the chat about challenges. You can make a workbook or a guide out of any one of these topics or any topic, topic you came up with while you were listening.
Yeah. And the key is, as with any other product or service, is that what you create solves a direct problem for your community of followers.
